她被描绘成一头母牛，卧于芦苇席上，或是一位头戴母牛头的女子，或是一位美丽的女子。她通常被描绘成双角之间佩戴着太阳圆盘图案的服饰。她也经常被描绘成佩戴着马奈（梅纳特）的雕像。（梅纳特，一种带有特殊配重的珠宝，并非真正的珠宝——它是哈索尔的圣物。）

作为水神，她不仅携君王或太阳神在水上航行，而且据信她能够为埃及带来活力之水。正如她的名字所示，她是尼罗河每年泛滥的神，因此她既与埃及的河流有关，也与冥界的河流有关，也与天上的河流（不透明之道）有关。梅赫特-韦雷特是努恩（Nun）水之神，太阳神由此诞生，她被称为拉（Ra）之母。
在金字塔时代，梅赫特-韦雷特描述了天界的航道，太阳神和国王都曾在此航行。
作为重生之神，她不仅被认为每天都会孕育太阳，而且还被认为能够促进生命的重生。在埃及法老的墓地中，有一张祭坛，其样式与梅赫特-韦雷特神相似。遗体可以安放在祭坛上，以象征梅赫特-韦雷特及其在冥界孕育生命的神力。从十八世纪开始，梅赫特-韦雷特是瓦塞特（底比斯）墓地的守护神，在祭坛纸莎草纸中，她被描绘成一头母牛，站在西方山脚下的纸莎草丛中，头部略微向外。哈索尔的形象也与此相同。
她是天上的母牛神，因此，她与哈索尔和努特配对，后两者被描绘成天空的母牛女神。与努特一样，她被认为每天孕育太阳。她与尼特紧密相连，被描绘成创世母牛神，被称为“母牛生拉”。当迈亨-韦雷特在创世之时生下拉时，她被认为将拉以太阳圆盘的形式放置在她的双角之间，这就是为什么她被描绘成身着哈索尔服饰的原因。在底比斯，一座靠近伊佩特雷西特（卢克索）/伊佩特伊特（卡纳克）的城市，她被认为是当地神祇的母亲，被称为“七贤者”。
She was pictured as a cow, lying on a reed mat, as a girl with the top of a cow, or as an attractive lady. typically she was portrayed sporting the sun disk article of clothing between her horns. She generally is shown sporting a Manet. (The Menat, a piece of jewelry with a special counterweight, isn't truly jewelry - it's an instrument sacred to Hathor.)
As a god of water, she not solely traveled on the water, taking the ruler or sun god together with her, however, she was thought to be in a position to bring vitalizing water to Egypt. She was a god of the yearly inundation of the Nile River, as indicated by her name, so was coupled to each the river in Egypt, and also the river within the underworld, and also the river within the sky (the opaque Way). Mehet-Weret was a god of the waters of Nun, from that the sun god emerged, and was called the Mother of Re.
Mehetweret means "Great Flood." The Pyramid Texts make reference to her. She gives birth to the sun at the beginning of time, according to creation tales from ancient Egypt. Her hindquarters give birth to the god Ra in Chapter 17 of the Book of the Dead. A cow with the sun disk between her horns is how she is portrayed in art. She may also be known as the "Eye of Ra." She is connected to the goddesses Neith, Hathor, and Isis, with whom she shares traits. She is sometimes just a title for these goddesses. Among her specific titles were "The Island" and "The Hill."

Mehet-Weret was a god of the waters of Nun, from that the sun god emerged, and was called the Mother of Re (Ra).
In the age of the Pyramids, Mehet-Weret described the waterway within the heavens, sailed upon by each the sun god and the king.
As a god of rebirth, she wasn't solely thought to provide birth to the sun daily; however, she was thought to be able to facilitate rebirth into a lifetime. there's a ceremony bed within the spot of the Pharaoh of Egypt, within the style of the god Mehet-Weret. The body might are placed on the bed to make sure a reference to Mehet-Weret and her ability to provide birth within the underworld. From the eighteenth kinsfolk forward, Mehet-Weret was the patron god of the burial site at Waset (Thebes) and was portrayed in ceremony papyri as a cow standing in papyrus plants at the foot of the mountains of the West, solely her head gesture out. Hathor was portrayed in the same manner.
Mebet-Weret's Roles
Mehet-Weret played an important role in the rebirth of the sun-god Re and the texts of the coffin of Mentuhotep II and of the tomb of Siptah in the Valley of Kings confirm this role and mention that the sun-god Re was reborn every morning between the thighs of Mehet-Weret and then Re appeared to the world and he was seen as a child issuing from the womb of the sky goddess or as a calf, the offspring of the celestial cow Mehet-Weret and this indicates that she is the great mother of the sun-god Re and she was as a creator goddess.
She was a celestial cow god and, as such, she was coupled to each Hathor and Nut, who were conjointly portrayed as nice cow goddesses of the sky. Like Nut, she was thought to provide daily birth to the sun. She was closely coupled to Nit, was portrayed as a cow god of creation, and called 'The Cow Gave Birth to Ra'. once Mehen-Weret gave birth to Re at creation, she was thought to own place him, within the style of a sun disk, between her horns, that is why she is shown sporting the article of clothing of Hathor. In Thebes a town close to Ipet-Resyt (Luxor)/Ipet-It (Karnak), she was believed to be the mother of the native deities, called "the Seven Wise People"
